Meta asks staff to work from office 3 days a week – Times of India

Meta Platforms is asking employees assigned to an office to come in three times a week beginning in September, according to people familiar with the matter, joining a clampdown on remote work in the tech industry.
The move is part of the company’s broader push to work more efficiently, said one of the people, who asked not to be named discussing private company policy. The company just culminated a prolonged process of laying off 10,000 employees a process which started in March and dragged on productivity.
Employees who are already remote workers can remain distributed, one of the people said. “We’re committed to distributed work, and we’re confident people can make a meaningful impact both from the office and at home,” a Meta spokesperson said. “We’re also committed to continuously refining our model to foster the collaboration, relationships and culture necessary for employees to do their bestwork” The Information earlier reported the change.
Management has been discussing the idea for some time. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in March that an internal analysis showed “engineers earlier in their career perform better on average when they work in-person with teammates at least three days a week”. In that public post, Zuckerberg went on to encourage Meta employees to find more chances to work together in person
